My customers and I have been coming to Apples for over six years, and each year tops the year before; there is never a dull moment and no one goes away hungry. The quaint rooms and excellent food as well as the warm hospitality of Barbara and Jim make each day rewarding and keep us coming back year after year.

I have to admit I did not care for the place, the service was fine; family run place. The beds we so soft and bouncy that we feared being launched into the air, there are allot of Hobby Lobby type decoration in the rooms, and a group of middle aged ladies seemed to be having a great time. We did... More

This place is the best... We have been coming to Apples for about 13 years and we feel like we are "home" every time we stay. Jim and Barbara are the perfect host/hostess and this is hard work for them and they never let on that they tire of it. From the afternoon hors deuvres and treats and cider, to... More

I look forward to my bi-annual visits with great enthusiasm! The staff is attentive to the guests' needs. The rooms are clean and everything is well-maintained. I highly... More

Apples has easy access and checkin was fast and efficient. The rooms were adorably appointed with fireplace and spa tub. The food was bountiful, fresh, and delicious. Barbara and Jim were so accommodating and went out of their way to make our stay memorable.

We were so happy with the personal service given to us by the Innkeppers Barbara & Jim McLean and their wonderful staff! The rooms were fabulous, spacious, warm and very cozy, just like home! Apples is located just off Big Bear Blvd, very centeral to all local activities and a walk away from the ski slopes!

I've gone to Apples for Scrapbooking retreats over the past 3 years, and I love this B&B. It's comforting, homey, and the owners, Barbara and Jim are delightful. The food is decadent and yummy. The only small negative I have is that in the 3-bed rooms (rooms that sleep three people), the third bed is a Day bed, and as... More

I can't say enough great things about my 11 stays at Apples B&B. The food is awesome every time. My group looks forward to their favorites :) The bedrooms are beautifully decorated with comfy beds. You will not be bothered with room service but you can get fresh towels daily, if you wish. All meal and snack times are listed... More
